Caroline Taggart

Caroline Taggart worked in publishing as an editor of popular nonfiction for 30 years before being asked to write I Used to Know That, which became a Sunday Times bestseller. Her later books include  My Grammar and I (Or Should That Be 'Me'?) and  Her Ladyship's Guide to the Queen's English. As a result, she has appeared frequently on BBC Breakfast and on national and regional radio, talking about language, grammar and Pythagoras's theorem. With her editorial hat on, she also visits writers' conferences around the country.
